Not the Only One

My father always said to me You gotta work hard
 Provide for your family
 I thought that he was right
 (Alright)
 Then I got myself a trade
 For a working class boy
 It's the only way I'll ever
 Earn a decent wage
 But around me, I see a lot of poverty
 Underpaid workers being threatened
 With refundency
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 Please say I'm not the only one
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 Please say I'm not the only one
 And it doesn't sit right with me
 No, it doesn't sit right with me
 I read about 1831
 What the men and women of Merthyr had done
 They were screaming for their rights
 (Their rights)
 It's a new year now, but nothing's changed
 The working class just want a decent wage
 And we'll keep up the fight
 I can't believe what I see
 It's a middle class soapbox
 Talking right at me
 But they don't speak for me
 (Not me)
 I won't waste my time politicking
 When it's time for action
 I'll be there kicking
 We won't fade away
 No way
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 Please say I'm not the only one
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 Please say I'm not the only one
 And it doesn't sit right with me
 No, it doesn't sit right with me
 Look around, what do I see?
 Our people in grips of poverty
 I ask myself, what can I do?
 Cause I know we deserve better
 I know it's true
 So when you're feeling down on your luck
 Like you're down and now you
 Don't give a fuck
 Remember, brother, I've been there before
 We will survive and we will get through
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 And I know I'm not the only one
 No, I won't stop singing this song
 'Cause I know I'm not the only one
 You can have it all and then it's gone
 And I know I'm not the only one
 No, I won't stop singing this song
 Cause I know I'm not the only one
 We might be down, but we're never out
 We might be down, but we're never out
 We might be down, but we're never out
 We might be down
 But we're never fucking out
